Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Saia, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (together, the Company or Saia). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit by the independent registered public accounting firm. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the interim periods included herein have been made. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information, the instructions to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted from these statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Operating results for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2023 . Business The Company provides national less-than-truckload (LTL) services through a single integrated organization. While more than 97 percent of its revenue has been derived from transporting LTL shipments across 45 states, the Company also offers customers a wide range of other value-added services, including non-asset truckload, expedited transportation and logistics services across North America. The Company’s customer base is diversified across numerous industries. Revenue Recognition The Company’s revenues are derived primarily from the transportation of freight as it satisfies performance obligations that arise from contracts with its customers. The Company’s performance obligations arise when it receives a bill of lading (BOL) to transport a customer's commodities at negotiated prices contained in either a transportation services agreement or a publicly disclosed tariff rate. Once a BOL is received and accepted, a legally-enforceable contract is formed whereby the parties are committed to perform and the rights of the parties, shipping terms and conditions, and payment terms have been identified. Each shipment represents a distinct service that is a separately identified performance obligation. The typical transit time to complete a shipment is from one to five days . Billing for transportation services normally occurs after completion of the service and payment is generally due within 30 days after the invoice date. The Company recognizes revenue related to the Company’s transportation services over the transit time of the shipment as it moves from origin to destination based on the transit status at the end of each reporting period. Key estimates included in the recognition and measurement of revenue and related accounts receivable are as follows: • Revenue associated with shipments in transit is recognized ratably over transit time; and • Adjustments to revenue for billing adjustments and collectability. The portion of the gross invoice related to interline transportation services that involve the services of another party, such as another LTL service provider, is not recorded in the Company’s revenues. Revenue from logistics services is recognized as the services are provided. Claims and Insurance Accruals The Company maintains a significant amount of insurance coverage with third-party insurance carriers that provides various levels of protection for covered risk exposure, including in the areas of workers’ compensation, bodily injury and property damage, casualty, cargo loss and damage and group health, with coverage limits, retention amounts and deductible amounts that vary based on policy periods and claim type. Claims and insurance accruals related to workers’ compensation, bodily injury and property damage, casualty, cargo loss and damage and group health are established by management based on estimates of losses that the Company will ultimately incur on reported claims and on claims that have been incurred but not yet reported. Accruals are calculated on reported claims based on an evaluation of the nature and severity of the claim, historical loss experience and on legal, economic and other factors. Actuarial analysis is also used in calculating the accruals for workers’ compensation and bodily injury and property damage claims.

Based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities, the estimated fair value of total debt at September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 was $ 18.5 million and $ 31.2 million, respectively, based upon level two inputs in the fair value hierarchy.

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Debt and Financing Arrangements	(5) Debt and Financing Arrangements At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, debt consisted of the following (in thousands): September 30, 2023 December 31, 2022 Credit Agreement with Banks, described below $ — $ — Finance Leases, described below 18,934 31,008 Total debt 18,934 31,008 Less: current portion of long-term debt 10,971 14,519 Long-term debt, less current portion $ 7,963 $ 16,489 The Company’s liquidity needs arise primarily from capital investment in new equipment, land and structures, information technology and letters of credit required under insurance programs, as well as funding working capital requirements. Credit Agreement Prior to February 3, 2023, the Company was a party to a Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with a banking group (the Amended Credit Agreement), that provided up to a $ 300 million revolving line of credit through February 2024 . The Amended Credit Agreement also had an accordion feature that allowed for an additional $ 100 million availability, subject to certain conditions and availability of lender commitments. Under the Amended Credit Agreement, the Company was required to maintain a minimum debt service coverage ratio set at 1.25 to 1.00 and a maximum leverage ratio set at 3.25 to 1.00. The Amended Credit Agreement provided for a pledge by the Company of certain land and structures, accounts receivable and other assets to secure indebtedness under this agreement. The Amended Credit Agreement contained certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and provisions relating to events of default. On February 3, 2023, the Company entered into a new unsecured credit agreement with a banking group (the 2023 Credit Agreement) and terminated the Amended Credit Agreement. The 2023 Credit Agreement maintains the amount of the previous line of credit of $ 300 million and extends the term until February 2028. The 2023 Credit Agreement contains an accordion feature that allows the Company to increase the size of the facility by up to $ 150 million, subject to certain conditions and availability of lender commitments. Under the 2023 Credit Agreement, the Company is subject to a maximum consolidated net lease adjusted leverage ratio of less than 3.50 to 1.00 with the potential to be temporarily increased in the event the Company makes an acquisition that meets certain criteria. The 2023 Credit Agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants and provisions relating to events of default. Under the 2023 Credit Agreement, if an event of default occurs, the banks will be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due. At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had no outstanding borrowings and outstanding letters of credit of $ 32.1 million and $ 31.2 million, respectively, under these credit agreements. The available portion of the 2023 Credit Agreement may be used for general corporate purposes, including capital expenditures, working capital and letter of credit requirements, as needed. Finance Leases The Company is obligated under finance leases with seven-year original terms collateralized by revenue equipment. Total liabilities recognized under finance leases were $ 18.9 million and $ 31.0 million as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. Amortization of assets held under the finance leases is included in depreciation and amortization expense. As of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, approximately $ 39.7 million and $ 60.5 million of finance leased assets, net of depreciation, were included in Property and Equipment, respectively.

Basis of Presentation	Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Saia, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (together, the Company or Saia). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the condensed consolidated financial statements. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company without audit by the independent registered public accounting firm. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the interim periods included herein have been made. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information, the instructions to Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted from these statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. Operating results for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 2023 .
Business	Business The Company provides national less-than-truckload (LTL) services through a single integrated organization. While more than 97 percent of its revenue has been derived from transporting LTL shipments across 45 states, the Company also offers customers a wide range of other value-added services, including non-asset truckload, expedited transportation and logistics services across North America. The Company’s customer base is diversified across numerous industries.
Revenue Recognition	Revenue Recognition The Company’s revenues are derived primarily from the transportation of freight as it satisfies performance obligations that arise from contracts with its customers. The Company’s performance obligations arise when it receives a bill of lading (BOL) to transport a customer's commodities at negotiated prices contained in either a transportation services agreement or a publicly disclosed tariff rate. Once a BOL is received and accepted, a legally-enforceable contract is formed whereby the parties are committed to perform and the rights of the parties, shipping terms and conditions, and payment terms have been identified. Each shipment represents a distinct service that is a separately identified performance obligation. The typical transit time to complete a shipment is from one to five days . Billing for transportation services normally occurs after completion of the service and payment is generally due within 30 days after the invoice date. The Company recognizes revenue related to the Company’s transportation services over the transit time of the shipment as it moves from origin to destination based on the transit status at the end of each reporting period. Key estimates included in the recognition and measurement of revenue and related accounts receivable are as follows: • Revenue associated with shipments in transit is recognized ratably over transit time; and • Adjustments to revenue for billing adjustments and collectability. The portion of the gross invoice related to interline transportation services that involve the services of another party, such as another LTL service provider, is not recorded in the Company’s revenues. Revenue from logistics services is recognized as the services are provided.
Claims and Insurance Accruals	Claims and Insurance Accruals The Company maintains a significant amount of insurance coverage with third-party insurance carriers that provides various levels of protection for covered risk exposure, including in the areas of workers’ compensation, bodily injury and property damage, casualty, cargo loss and damage and group health, with coverage limits, retention amounts and deductible amounts that vary based on policy periods and claim type. Claims and insurance accruals related to workers’ compensation, bodily injury and property damage, casualty, cargo loss and damage and group health are established by management based on estimates of losses that the Company will ultimately incur on reported claims and on claims that have been incurred but not yet reported. Accruals are calculated on reported claims based on an evaluation of the nature and severity of the claim, historical loss experience and on legal, economic and other factors. Actuarial analysis is also used in calculating the accruals for workers’ compensation and bodily injury and property damage claims.
